Steve McQueen and Michael Fassbender's second collaboration is harrowing, but always beautiful.

A tale told from nostalgia, perhaps not always effective but enough to entertain. (✯✯✯½)

Restrained, where Joe Wright is at his best. (✯✯✯✯)

Hysteria all as is. (✯✯✯✯✯)

Awful human characters excused with far more exciting ape characters with a story of their own. (✯✯✯½)

Stylistically more satisfying and also overall more captivating than the original take. (✯✯✯✯)
